Okay here is a question that I have on protein. I know it is essential in terms of needing it to build muscles etc. My husband is a fitness nut and takes loads of all sorts of different things. BUT I am someone who does NOT by any means like to drink "sweet" tasting drinks. I can't even handle a smoothie. And I don't like juice besides a small glass of orange juice, or a few sips of apple juice at a time. I just flat out don't have any sort of sweet tooth. Well when it comes to those particular products it seems that the flavors are geared towards everything being sweet :( So does anyone have anything that they could point me towards that doesn't taste like chocolate, vanilla, or coffee flavored supplement drinks? I could stand to take a fruit punch flavored drink. My husband takes creotein (sp) in that flavor. But I don't want to add bulk that that builds.

Also any good products that anyone takes that don't have chocolate or sweet flavors in the protein bars as well? I can stand some of these. But I have to eat them divided over the day. Bare in mind that I don't ever even eat a whole candy bar in one sitting. I'm talking fun size candybars are the size I tend to be able to handle. I like salty things and there isn't a lot on the market for that type of flavoring. HELP!!!

    What about unflavored whey protein that you can stir into oatmeal or yogurt?

    Easy fix here is skip the supplements and get your protein through lean meats, beats, and nuts.

    That is my only source that I do get it from now. I just don't want to be eating all day and was trying to find something for "on the go" friendly things to have. I do like trail mix type foods though sometimes. So not a bad idea to mix some more of those in too.
